Honorably Endeavored
By Arley Steinhour 082416

People on Welfare, no matter their Pride,
Accustomed to the 'Fence,' cannot Hide,
What-ever the Command, they will Follow,
So-as-Not to lose Income, where they 'Wallow.'

Like, Pigs, in a Pen, they're fed to Perfection,
To 'Grow into Fodder,' as 'Ennui-Confection,'
So long as there's Profit, in keeping you Around,
Or, fed after young Ennui, where more can be Found.

To Work for a Living, is Honorably Endeavored,
No matter the income, until Welfare is Severed,
Then, Back to the TV, Soaps and Sports, Agenda,
Until, 'Gov.' finds the perfect financial Vendetta.

At last, if occurring, you live to be 'Old,'
In a Tenement, Ghetto, 'Broken-windowed,'
No Heat, in the Winter, No Cool in the Heat,
You finally enjoy, Heaven, once becoming, 'Dead Meat.'

So, 'Fight for your Rights,' for 'Minimum-Wage Money,
You are asking for Hinderpart-droppings, with a Taste of Honey,
Worse, is the Sting of 'Welfare, 'Tightening the Poor's Bond,'
Until, 'Hope' is Gone; 'Power and Greed, be Satanically Spawned.'

Consider, perhaps, another, and better(?), Solution,
Put 'Purchasing Power, back into 'Income Equation,'
'With 'X' amount, of money, How Far will it Go,'
'Earn Less, Buy More,' you now own, 'Cash-Flow.'
(Sadly, everyone needs do it, to work.)

AMEN

Arley, you never miss a chance to look down your old nose at people on Welfare.

Just as there are Farmers that receive Government Assistance when not truly needed, so are there Welfare Recipients that receive Government Assistance when not truly needed.

Practice your Christian Principals Arley, if you have any remaining.

Dear Geezer, I am so sorry you completely missed what I was alluding to with my words. I was not attacking people for being on Welfare, for crying out loud, I was making a statement about how the Government gets people onto Welfare (in the pen), and then makes it so tough for the 'Needy' to escape the system (pen), that those 'Needy,' are actually punished for the attempt, so to speak.

President Reagan said it best, when he quipped about how dangerous it was for someone to come up to you, and tell someone 'I am from the Government, and I'm here to """Help""" you.'

In my Christianity, that you seem to love invoking disparaging remarks at, God's Word says 'Once Saved, Always Saved,' and the Government has something like that, that is something like, 'Once enrolled in a help program, we own you, and you can't do anything except subjugate your life to our way of things.' (I paraphrase, as I understand your attitude, Sir!!) Please forgive my return snippiness, but you almost always seem to take an adverse understanding to my words. Please reread, a bit slower, perhaps, and you may understand that I am feeling sorry for the Needy, but, not the 'Greedy,' who make a profession out of living off of Welfare. I believe you will agree that we have too many of the Greedy (Play the loop-holes in the system) types that should not be 'IN the system.'

PS: Geezer. Did you notice that the 'one' family they are addressing is living on 'Less than $2.00(US), per 'DAY??' The article is, In My Opinion, twisting, and misleading with false calculations.

We can disagree, but let us do it agreeably, please. I'm not perfect at that, either, but let us try. What-Say??
